PARSONS — A Missouri boy sustained critical injuries when thrown from a four-wheel, all-terrain vehicle in rural Labette County on Monday evening.
The Kansas Highway Patrol says Isaac McDermott, age 10, of Bronaugh, Mo., was taken to Children’s Mercy Medical Center in Kansas City, Mo., after the ATV he was riding crashed into pothole in a field on 22000 Road, four miles southeast of Parsons, on Monday evening. The all-terrain vehicle was piloted by David Wayne Barger, age 27, of Paola, Kan. Barger was not injured in the mishap.
The ATV was traveling at about 30 miles per hour when it hit the pothole, the Kansas Highway Patrol report said.
